1. Every square of a $8 \times 8$ board is filled with a positive integer, such that the following condition holds: if a chess knight can move from some square to another then the ratio of numbers from these two squares is a prime number. Is it possible that some square is filled with 5 , and another one with 6 ? Egor Bakaev
We have a pool table $8$ meters long and $2$ meters wide with a single ball in the center. We throw the ball in a straight line and, after traveling $29$ meters, it stops at a corner of the table. How many times did the ball hit the edges of the table? Note: When the ball rebounds on the edge of the table, the two angles that form its trajectory with the edge of the table are the same.

The real numbers $\alpha_1 , \alpha_2, \alpha_3, \ldots, \alpha_n$ are positive. Let us denote by $h = \frac{n}{1/\alpha_1 + 1/\alpha_2 + \cdots + 1/\alpha_n}$ the harmonic mean, $g=\sqrt[n]{\alpha_1\alpha_2\cdots \alpha_n}$ the geometric mean, and $a=\frac{\alpha_1+\alpha_2+\cdots + \alpha_n}{n}$ the arithmetic mean. Prove that $h \leq g \leq a$, and that each of the equalities implies the other one.
We call any eight squares in a diagonal of a chessboard as a fence. The rook is moved on the chessboard in such way that he stands neither on each square over one time nor on the squares of the fences (the squares which the rook passes is not considered ones it has stood on). Then what is the maximum number of times which the rook jumped over the fence?

Let $n$ be a positive integer. Consider $2n$ distinct lines on the plane, no two of which are parallel. Of the $2n$ lines, $n$ are colored blue, the other $n$ are colored red. Let $\mathcal{B}$ be the set of all points on the plane that lie on at least one blue line, and $\mathcal{R}$ the set of all points on the plane that lie on at least one red line.
